A BRIEF BIisTrvoRwT 


OF THE 


STATE OF NEW-JERSEY. 


OVA CESEREA, or NEW-JERSEY, is the name given 

by the Duke of York to an extensive Territory granted 

to him by his brother, Charles the Second, immediately upon 
the subjection of the Dutch of New-Amsterdam, (now New- 
York City,) in 1664. The Duke of York, on the 23d of 
June of the same year, conveyed a portion of this Territory 
to two individuals, Lord Berkeley and Sir George Carteret. 
This Royal Charter, which the Duke received from the King, 
and ceded to the two persons above named, is the first 
instrument of conveyance in which the bounds of the State 
are laid down, and the name given to the tract which it has 
since retained. The name was given as a compliment to 
Sir George Carteret, for defending the Island of Jersey 
against the forces of Cromwell in the Civil Wars of England. 
The conveyance was made in the following terms: “This 
Indenture, made this three-and-twentieth day of June, in the 
sixteenth year of the reign of our sovereign Lord, Charles 
the Second, by the Grace of God, of England, Scotland, 
France and Ireland, King, Defender of the Faith, Anno Do- 
mini, 1664, Between his Royal Highness, James, Duke of 
York and Albany, &e., &c., &c.—Witnesseth, That the said 
Duke of York, for and in consideration of the sum of ten 
shillings, money of England, to him in hand paid, by these 


6 


presents,doth bargain and sell unto the said Lord Berkeley and 
Sir George Carteret, al] that tract of land hereafter to be 
known and called, Nova Ceserea, or New-Jersey,” In addi- 
tion to the ten shillings, there was to be an annual rent of 
“one peppercorn,” to be paid onthe day of the Nativity of 
St. John the Baptist, if legally demanded. The two pro- 
prietors made a constitution, which remained in force until 
the 9th of July, 1776, and was altered and amended in 
May, 1844. Under the Colonial Government, Philip Carte- 
ret was the first Governor. He fixed the seat of Government 
at Elizabethtown—purchased lands of the Indians, and sent 
agents to New-England to procure settlers, who located 
themselves in the neighborhood and at Newark. 

The discoveries of Columbus and his immediate succes- 
sors were confined to the islands of the Gulf of Mexico, and 
parts of the adjacent coast. The immense tracts that lay in- 
land and the extended coasts of North America stretching 
thousands of miles towards the setting sun, were unexplored 
and almost unknown for quite a century after the landing of 
Europeans on the coast. That part of the coast with which 
we are now more directly concerned was first visited in 
1609, by Hendrick Hudson, an English Mariner, in the 
service of the Dutch East India Company, in quest of a 
passage fo the Indies through the American continent. 
Following the eastern shore of New-Jersey, he anchored his 
ship within Sandy Hook, on the 3d of September, 1609. A 
few days after, Hudson entered the river that bears his name. 
At the same time, the boats from his ship explored the 
coasts of Long and Staten Islands, and the shores of New- 
Jersey. About nine years after, in 1618, some Norwegians 
and Danes made the first settlement in this part of New- 
Jersey. They located themselves at Jersey City, and threw 
up a redoubt to protect themselves and followers. 

The State is divided into three grand divisions of soil, 
face of the country, productions and climate. The southern- 
middle and northern—the alluvial level—sedimentary 


7 


southern—the middle hilly secondary formation—north- 
ern mountainous, comprising primitive and secondary forma- 
tions. South of a line drawn from Hoboken, taking the 
southern bank of “ Lawrence’s Brook” west to the Deleware 
River at Trenton to the ocean, with the exception of the 
Nevisink Hills, the lower portion of the State is almost a 
level. 

Those hills adjacent to the ocean are over 300 feet above 
the level, and stand where the waves formerly rolled, resting in 
some places on banks of oyster-shells, and other marine 
relics, blended with clay and sea-weed. The middle is the 
portion of the State, in which the city of New-Brunswick is 
situated. This section, from N. E. to S. W., is about 
seventy miles in length, and some twenty miles in breadth. 
It has much variety of soil, and hill and valley Its 
soil is distinguished by its peculiar red shale, upon which 
rest some hills of greater or less elevation. There is includ- 
ed in this division a large part of the County of Bergen, all 
of Passaic, a small portion of Morris, all of Essex, Somerset 
and Hunterdon, half of Middlesex and Mercer. Through 
the valleys formed by the hills, a number of rivers find their 
tortuous and sluggish passage to the ocean. One of the 
most prominent of these is our own Raritan (Indian dialect 
for Forked) River, and its tributaries. This middle portion 
was the earliest estley ard is. {now the most populous. and 
the wealthiest. . Gp ae 

For three-quarters of a century after the expedition of 
Hudson, the territory now comprising the State of N. J., 
was suffered to remain in the quiet possession of the aie 
gines, undisturbed by the occupation of white men. In 
1650, an adventurous Quaker from the infant colony of 
Shrewsbury, wandered into these then remote regions, and 
after following the course of the Raritan from its mouth at 
Amboy, to the “head of tide water,’ crossed the middle of 
the State, halting at “ Rock Hill” with his Indian guides, 
for one night, reached the Falls of the Deleware at Trenton.

After which the country lay forgotten for fifty years longer. 
In 1676, the Governor and Council first adopted some gen- 
eral regulations for the opening of roads. The only road that 
had been laid out by Europeans in New-Jersey, was that 
connecting the City of New-Amsterdam (now N. York) with 
the settlements on the Deleware. Thisroad followed the “ old 
road,” as now termed from Elizabeth Town Point to Wood- 
bridge, through Bonhamtown and Piscatawa to the ford of 
“the river” just above the present Rail Road viaduct landing 
on the west side, at the place occupied by the “Upper 
Lock.” There must have been great rejoicings in the City 
of New-Amsterdam at the completion of this communication 
with those settlements, as the Dutch Burgomasters became 
fully impressed with the belief that this portion of territory 
became theirs, by the rights of trade. They were little 
aware how brief their dominion in this land would be, or 
how soon the fruits of all their toil would fall into the hands 
of a nation then unborn; who in one little century should 
spring to independence and power, and claim an honorable 
place among the older empires of the earth. This road was 
little more than a foot-path, and intended only to accommo- 
date “ man and horse.” In 1696, the Legislature established 
rates for the Ferry at New-Brunswick, known as “ Inian’s 
Ferry,” located at the foot of Albany Street, where, and on 
the opposite side of the river, the wharves for the accommo- 
dation of the Ferry boat may yet be seen. 


MIDDLESEX COUNTY. 


Mipptesex County was first incorporated by the Gen- 
eral Assembly, under the government of the proprietors, in 
1682. The boundaries have been altered at different times 
by the Legislature—in 1703, 1713, 1790, and in the present 


9 


century, 1851. It is bounded on the north by Essex County, 
on the east by Arthur’s Kill or Staten Island Sound, and 
Raritan Bay, south by Monmouth and Mercer, and west by 
Somerset and Mercer Counties. It isa well-watered garden, 
the soil being rich and intersected by the Raritan and its 
tributaries, the Millstone and other inferior streams, and 
washed on its eastern and south-eastern limits by the Rah- 
way River and Raritan Bay. It is about thirty miles from 
north-east to south-west, and about fifteen miles broad. The 
face of the County is usually uneven, sometimes rising into 
. fine swells with level table summits, intersected with valleys, 
through which meander sluggish streams that water, and by 
their overflow enrich the surrounding meadows. The 
southern third of the County is more level, so that there are 
but few hills to be found. 

The hills in the other parts of the County do not lie in 
any particular ranges, but like the ocean in a high and irre- 
gular swell, present an undulating surface. The Alluvial soil, 
begining on the southern side of Lawrence’s Brook, is tho 
most level, and the low grounds about South River are sedi- 
mentary and almost entire flats. A range of gentle ele- 
vations commences on the eastern side of the Raritan at New- 
Brunswick, and gradually increasing in height as they 
advance north-east, diverge towards the Passaic River. In 
the vicinity of New-Brunswick, this range holds its way 
north-easterly about half-way between the Raritan and Pas- 
saic, and continues to increase in altitude till it reaches the 
eastern border of the County. Seen from the hill on the 
Easton turnpike, south of “ Charlies Hope,” with the river 
and canal at One’s feet, to the blue outline and general 
aspect of mountains, north and east. 

Another line of hills, commencing west of the Raritan at 
New-Brunswick,”and_seperating the, waters of that stream 
from those” of the ,Millstone, extends westwardly until it 
approaches and”runs into the sand hills that bound the 
valleyof Lawrence’s Brook, diverging gradually from the 


10 


line of that stream as it passes beyond the western limits of 
the County. There are also hills of considerable elevation on 
the east side of the Millstone, known as “Rocky Hill.” 
But generally speaking, Middlesex may be considered as a 
plain divided into pine woods, table lands, swamps, hickory 
and oak hills. The pine-wood lands are generally level ; 
there are some exceptions, but few. They have almost 
invariably a light soil. Some of those in the lower part of 
the County are even sterile, answering well to the name by 
which they have been called in derision, “Pine Barrens.” 
Those included under the general term of “ Pines,” are the 
first which occur on the west side of Raritan Bay. It is 
almost an immeasurable plain of Pine T'rees, extending from 
the southern limits of the City of New-Brunswick on the 
north to the ocean on the south, and reaching to the Gulf of 
Mexico on the south-west. Being open to the ocean, it is 
fanned by its refreshing breezes. The climate of the County 
is temperate. Itis situatedin40° 25’ North Latitude, and 
in 2° 34’ East Longitude from Washington City. In the 
neighborhood of the low grounds and marshy places, the 
diseases, in summer, partake of the character of those of the 
temperate zone. From the proximity to “the ocean, the 
easterly winds are cold and damp at all seasons of the year, 
producing affections of the chest, feverand ague—and kin- 
dred diseases of a mild type, are prevalent in the County. 
The climate is favorable to almost all the productions of 
the milder latitudes. Indian Corn, Wheat, Rye, Oats, the 
Grape, Mulberry, Sweet Potatoe, and the grasses flourish in 
rich abundance. The Peach, the Apple and all the small 
garden fruits and vegetables attain to a luxuriance of growth 
scarcely known in any part of the country. Hay and Corn 
are two of the principal articles of culture. The former is 
chiefly raised in the Township of Piscatawa. The culti- 
vated lighter soil of the County is capable of producing many 
articles more lucrative than corn or hay, of which there is 
no danger of producing an over supply, as there is a large 


11 


and increasing demand in the cities on each side of us, and 
they are easily conveyed to market. Peaches, cherries, curs 
rants, strawberries, raspberries, milk, &e., &c., may be men- 
tioned as sure results to any who are disposed to try them. 
The minerals of the County, so far as known, are limited. 
Copper has been found in the neighborhood of the City of 
New-Brunswick, but not very abundant. Valuable deposits 
of marl have been found in the southern part of the County, 
which are used to great advantage. In the neighborhood of 
Woodbridge, and at Chesquakes in South Amboy Town- 
ship, clay exists of a superior quality, very white and pure, 
suitable for the manufacturing of pottery of the finest 
quality, 

The interests of Education in Middlesex, has always been 
paramount. Common School Education, though hitherto 
much neglected, is now decidedly and perceptably advanc- 
ing. In the higher departments the County has been pre- 
eminent. The venerable college of Nassau Hall, the Theo- 
logical Seminary belonging to the Presbyterian Church, 
several academies and boarding-schools at Princeton were 
within the original bounds of the County, and Rutgers 
College, the Theological Seminary of the Dutch Reformed 
Church—a Grammar School, two Select Schools for young 
ladies at New-Brunswick—two Academies at Rahway, and 
Common Schools in every district in the County speak 
well for the educational advantages of Middlesex. _ 

Rutgers College was incorporated by George III. in 1770, 
and named “Queen’s College,” altered to its present 
name by the Legislature in 1825. The Charter for the 
College of New-Jersey was granted by George II. in 1746, 
through the intercession of Acting-Governor, John Ham- 
ilton, and the main building was called “ Nassau Hall,” 
to the “immortal memory of the glorious King William IIL.,” 
a branch of the house of Nassau. The building is of stone, 
with wooden interior, which has been burnt out three times, 
the last within the present year, Thus Middlesex County 


12 


has held within her bounds both Collegiate and Theological 
Institutions, at different times. 

This central part of the County of Middlesex has the 
remains of four redoubts, erected early in the struggle for 
Independence. One on the hill north of the City of New- 
Brunswick, now occupied by the residence of David Bishop, 
Esq. The second on the first eminence on the eastern side 
of the Raritan River, near the dwelling of Mr. Schushardt. 
The third in the “ Big Field,” south.of the Old Bridge, at 
present owned and cultivated by Dr. F. R. Smith. The 
fourth near the junction of Town Lane and George’s Road, 
on lands recently belonging to Samuel Brush, deceased. 
This latter is mentioned by Lieut.-General Simcoe, in his 
account of being taken prisoner and brought to New-Bruns- 
wick, that he was attempting to gain the Princeton road 
with his troops, west of this redoubt, when his horse was 
shot under him, in his passage through the Middlebush 
woods. 

Another statement connected with the history of Middle- 
sex County, and we pass to the City of New-Brunswick. 
The War of Independence was achieved. The Congress of 
the United States was sitting at Princeton. They had fur- 
nished General Washington with a private residence at 
Rocky Hill, (still standing,) to be convenient for consultation 
and advice. The Union had scarcely emerged from infancy. 
George Washington, having the entire confidence of the 
government and the approbation of the people, continued to 
exercise the office of Commander-in-Chief until his accounts 
and every thing was settled, and then resigned, carrying 
with him into private life the regrets and affectionate regards 
of the inhabitants of the Union. The house of Judge 
Berrian is said to be still standing in which he resided, on 
the brow of the hill on the east side of the Millstone River. 

This part of the original thirteen States was the “ Battle 
Field” of the Revolution. Monmouth, Princeton and Tren- 
ton, were originally within the limits of Middlesex County. 


13 


The two first are now only just without the bounds. 
Trenton! Princeton!! Monmouth!!! The very naming of 
which causes the bosom of an American to swell with patri- 
otic pride, how much more so a Jerseyman, and trebly a 
native of Middlesex! The historic facts which give celebrity 
to these spots, are too well known to require recapitulation 
here. They were the decisive battles of the period, and here 
it was that the Union was saved from the hands of an invad- 
ing enemy, consisting of German hirelings. The greater 
portion of the American Army were plain, honest farmers 
who knew nothing of battle—they knew that their country 
was in danger—the country which gave a home to them 
and their children, and they flew to its defence—drove the 
invaders from their fields, and then returned to their homes 
to till the ground, until at a “minute’s warning” they were’ 
again called to meet the foe. 

It is nota matter of surprise that even “regular troops” 
should be routed by undisciplined men, defending their 
native soil, with their wives and children behind them. A 
visit to these Battle Fields is a sort of pilgrimage, that no 
patriotic American can neglect. Not to have seen the fields 
of these great victories, would be a reflection upon the taste, 
not to say the patriotism, of any who should visit their 
neighborhoods. The grounds, it is true, present but few 
memorials to remind the patriotic visitor of the deadly strife. 
There is no proud monument towering to the sky to mark 
the place where the great victories were won. But he 
beholds the consequences, wherever he turns his eye, and he 
feels them—deeply feels them—in every throb of his heart. 
Those born upon the soil, descendants of those who partici- 
pated in the struggle, have reason to be proud of the spot, 
and to cherish the memory of those eventful days. If there 
is no lofty structure of granite or marble to perpetuate the 
glorious achievement, it has a holier, a more enduring memo- 
rial, in the heart of every true American, which thrills with 
lofty pride at every allusion to it, as did the ancient Greeks: at 
the name of Marathon, or the Spartan at that of Thermopylae.

THE CITY OF NEW-BRUNSWICK. 


Tue City or New-Brunswicx is the Capital of Middle- 
sex County, and occupies the western bank of the Raritan 
River, in ascending fifteen miles from its mouth at Amboy. 
The River runs nearly North and South opposite the city, 
and makes a considerable bend to the North-West, and the 
city stands on the South-Western side. It is thirty-one 
miles by the N. J. R. R. South-West from the City of New- 
York. Itisin 40° 41’ north latitude, west longitude from 
Greenwich, 70° 49°. By the river, forty-five miles to 
New-York—from Philadelphia, by the Delaware River and 
Delaware and Raritan Canals, seventy-five miles—and by 
the Camden and Amboy Rail Road, fifty-six miles. 

In 1660, an adventurous Quaker, with a canoe managed 
by Indians, explored the shores and banks of the River 
Raritan. He entered its mouth, at Amboy Point, and 
described the flats and crooked course of the river, the bluffs 
above and below the city, at that time a swamp and covered 
with wood, the peculiar color of the soil (the red shale) 
is particularly noticed, and his arrival at the head of tide- 
water, where he procured other Indians as guides to the falls 
of the Delaware, the present location of Trenton. His 
description of the path and encampment on “Rock Hill”— 
the desertion of part of his guides—his view ofthe Falls of 
the Delaware, and voyage down the river to Philadelphia, is 
most graphic, At this time, the only house in that vicinity 
was a log hut on the east side of the river, near the fording 
place, which must have been at the location of the N. J. R. 
R. Viaduct. This has been a public highway, and a ford 
of “The River,” as it was called, since the first traveling be- 
tween the eastern and western parts of the State. In a few 
historical sketches attached'to “a Directory” published by 


15 


Terhune & Letson, in 1829, we find theaccompanying state- 
ments as to the early history of our City: 

“Near the close of the 17th century, the place where 
the city now stands was covered with woods, and called 
after the name of the proprietor, “Prigmore’s Swamp.” 
The first inhabitant of whom we have any account was one 
Daniel Cooper, who resided where the post road crossed 
“The River,” and kept the ferry which afterwards, in 17138, 
when the County lines were drawn, was called “ Inian’s 
Ferry.” One of the first houses was still standing in 1829, 
at the foot of “Town Lane,” and some other buildings 
erected about the same time, may be distinguished by their 
antique structure in Burnet and Albany Streets. The 
original inhabitants were principally from Long Island. 
About 1730 several Dutch families emigrated from Albany, 
bringing with them their building materials, in imitation of 
their worthy ancestors, who imported with them their bricks 
and tiles, &c., from Holland. Some of them built their 
houses on the post road, which has from this circumstance, 
by common consent, acquired the name :* Albany Street, 
although originally it was called French Sireet, in honor of 
Philip French, Esq., who held a large tract of land on the 
north side of it. About this time the name of New- 
Brunswick was given to the place, which before had been 
designated as “The River.” 

The first charter of incorporation was under royal favor, 
through William Burnett, Esq., in 1736. A copy of this 
charter was discovered among some old papers within the 
present year, and deposited with the Recorder of the City. 
Itis probable, that as a compliment to Governor Burnett for 
procuring this charter, the then principal business street was 
named Burnet Street, which it has since retained. One of 
the early founders of the Presbyterian Church in this City, 
was James Hude, an ancestor of the Hardenberg family, who 
fled from religious oppression in Scotland, and settled in this 
City, where he was a member of Council, and Mayor of the 


16: 


City—the first name we can find in ‘connection with’ that. 
office. His residence was the “Bell Tavern,’ now in the 
occupancy of James Couenhoven, at the foot of Albany 
Street. It was a one-story stone house, and has since been 
raised to its present respectable appearance, three stories, and 
weather-boarded. Most of the houses built by the Dutch 
from Albany are frame, with brick fronts, to give an appear- 
ance to the streetof brick buildings, when in reality 
the fronts only are of brick. Unfortunately, the early 
records of our City and County were wantonly de- 
stroyed by the Hessian troops, when they evacuated 
the City during the Revolutionary War. We are, there- 
fore, dependant for many statements upon tradition, 


‘which, it is well known, are not the most accurate, especially 


as to dates, and consequently, as to the order in which they 
transpired. A Swede, by the name of Kahn, visited New- 
Brunswick the 29th of October, 1748. In his account of 
this visit, we have some facts interesting to our citizens. His 
approach to the City from Princeton must have been by 
George’s Road, for he passed through great woods, constitu- 
ted of nothing but deciduous trees: he did not see a jir 
until he came to New-Brunswick. The ground was level, 
and not all of the richest kind. Rock Hill was covered 
with trees, and no large stones but that three men could 
have rolled down. He must have passed well to the south 
of Rocky Hill, or else the infant rocks of that day must have 
grown vastly in the century that has elapsed since the visit 
of the Swede. As he approached the city from the west, he 
saw nothing of it until he gained the hill, at the foot of 
which, ina valley, he saw a pretty little town, which ex- 
tended north and south along the river. 

Another of these streets called Albany Street, was 
almost entirely inhabited by Dutchmen from Albany. 
These people only keep company among themselves, and 
seldom or ever going among the other inhabitants, living, as 
it were, separate from them. He states that the Dutch 


17 


inhabitants had two churches—the one of stone, the other 
of wood—the English Church also of wood—the Presbyter- 
ians were building of stone. The Town House made a good 
appearance in his eye; where it was situated he does not 
inform us. Some of the other houses were built of brick, 
some of wood and brick, and some entirely of wood, covered. 
-with shingles, with a kind of balcony in front, where the 
inmates sat in the evening to observe the passers, and to 
enjoy the fresh air. There was only one street, lengthwise, 
Burnett Street, at that time, and at its northern extremity at 
right angles was Albany Street—both of considerable length. 
The trade of the town was with New-York, consisting of 
corn, flour in great quantities, bread, and several other ne- 
cessaries—a great quantity of linseed, boards, timber, wooden 
vessels, and all sorts of carpenters’ work. Several small 
yachts were going every day, backwards and forwards, 
between these two towns. The inhabitants likewise, got a 
considerable profit from the travellers who passed every 
hour on the high road. - Many fortunes were made by this 
trade by our ancestors, until 1832, when the Delaware and 
Raritan Canal cut off the most lucrative part of it, and the 
Rail Roads have finished what the Canal. commenced. 
Efforts are since making to erect manufacturing establish- 
ments, which, from the advantages of . the goatee are 
proving successful. 

The first Act of Tacorporation by the Legislature, was in 
1784. The city at that time, and for many years, was part 
in Middlesex and part in Somerset. ‘The line of the County 
was changed by law in 1850—all that part of the City north 
and west of Albany Street, was placed within the bounds of 
Middlesex. The lower part of the townis naturally swampy, 
and is covered with soil, artificially, from three to four feet. 
The yellow brick front house in Albany Street, No. 20, 
nearly opposite the State Bank, required four stone steps to 
gain the floor of the store from the sidewalk, which is now 
eyen with the street, as is also, the case with the houses 


18 


above on the same block, Nos. 34 and 36. The same was 
the case in Church Street, as seen in the house so long occu- 
pied by Mr. Thomas Eastburn, as a Druggist Store. We all 
recollect the old house that stood on the corner of Albany 
and Peace Streets, which was taken down to receive the pre- 
sent substantial brick building, known as Mechanic’s Hall, 
was one step below the street, and we are informed by some 
of our oldest inhabitants, that within their recollection, it 
was a step above, if not two. But the ground, less than half 
a mile from the river, is high and overlooks the surrounding 
country. The upper part of the City has grown rapidly 
within the last ten years—the streets are generally well laid 
out and broad—well paved and regulated, and lighted with 
gas. 

The City is bounded on the north by the One-Mile-Run, 
on the east by the River Raritan, south by Lawrence’s Brook, 
near Milltown, to the point where the Old Trenton Road 
crosses the mile-run, and down it to the entrance into the 
river, the place of beginning. The plotof the City is almost 
a triangle, with its base on the river, which is three miles 
from north to south, in length, and from two and a half to 
three miles in greatest width. The modern built houses are 
generally of wood, painted white, with green shutters, two 
stories high, and considerable taste displayed in their erec- 
tion, which is increasing. The view of the City from the 
east side of the river, is beautiful and imposing—and from 
the point of Sonman’s Hill, looking north, the panorama is 
magnificent and surprising. The population is about 10,000; 
and most of the residents own the housesin which they live. 
Rents are reasonable. Among the strange places in the 
vicinity, and one that has excited as much interest as any 
other, except the Mine Holes, in the northern part of the 
City, is the Indian Mound, on the farm of Mrs. Evans, in 
the middle of which, by her own request, Miss Ellis was 
buried. These mounds are common in the Western States, 
and are supposed to be the burial places of the Aborigines 


19 

by some—others believe them to have been cowncil grounds. 
They are generally selected with reference to their proximity 
to navigable streams and romantic situations. Itissaid that 
an Indian of the Leni-Lenappe tribe, on his return from 
Burlington, where he had been on a visit to his friends, the 
Delawares, to Green Bay, turned aside from the main post- 
road, to muse an hour solitary and alone in the center of that 
mound. Fixed as a bronzed statue, he remained, unheeding 
the boys who surrounded him, till his pious musings were 
ended, he stalked again to the highway and pursued his 
course to the Far West. | 

This portion of the great family of six nations occupied 
the whole of New-Jersey south of the Raritan, and sold their 
lands to the settlers as required when the Europeans first 
landed: and so conscientious were our ancestors, that when 
in 1832 a claim was preferred by this tribe, it was only for 
the unpurchased right “to fish in all the streams, and hunt 
in the unenclosed grounds of the territory,” to extinguish 
which and secure a full discharge from all indebtedness 
to the aborigines, the Legislature paid them 2,000 dollars. 
In acknowledging the receipt of which, an aged Indian of 
the tribe said, ‘‘The final act of official intercourse between 
the State of New-Jersey and the Delaware Indians, who once 
owned nearly the whole of its territory, is consummated, 
and in a manner which must redound to the honor of this 
growing Commonwealth, and, in all probability, to the pro- 
longation of the existence of a wasted yet grateful people. 

“Upon this parting occasion, I feel it to be an incumbent 
duty to bear the feeble tribute of my praise to the high-toned 
justice, which in this instance, and in all former times, has 
actuated the Councils of this State in dealing with the abori- 
ginal inhabitants. Not a drop of our blood have you 
spilled in battle—not an acre of our land have you taken 
but by our consent. These facts speak for themselves, and 
need no comment. They place the character of New-Jersey 
in bold relief, and are a bright example to those States within 


20 | 


whose territorial limits our brethren still remain. Nothing, 
save blessings, can fall upon her from the lips of the Leni 
Lenappe. There may be some who would despise an Indian’s 
benediction, but when I return to my people, and make 
known to.them the result of my. mission, the Ear of the 
Great Sovereign of the Universe, which is still open to our 
ery, will be penetrated with our anponation of blessings upen 
the generous sons of New-Jersey.” 

* The Mines,” as they are called, are the shafts that were 
sunk by the miners in 1748, ’49, and ’50, and cover a con- 
siderable extent of ground, which was at that time, a part of 
the farm of Philip French, Esq. There had been turned up 
by the plough, a number of pieces of Virgin Copper, varying 
in size from five to twelve pounds, amounting to some 200 
pounds. This led to mining operations being carried on by 
Elias Boudinot, Esq., and a Company, under lease from Mr. 
French, by whose management considerable ore was taken 
out and sent to England. A gallery for communication be 
tween the shafts, is said to exist, which is entered on the 
eastern bank of the Mile-Run Brook, just north of where 
Hamilton Street crosses the brook, high enough to admita 
man with a wheel-barrow. This opening, when dry, was 
not particularly to be dreaded by an experienced miner. 
It runs in an easterly direction, and communicates with a 
shaft at the north-east corner of the Cotton Factory, out of 
which was taken, some years since, a long pump rod. The 
gallery dips deeper into the bowels of the earth as it extends 
eastwardly, and under the bed of the river, communicating 
again with the outer world on the opposite side. This, how- 
ever, is contradicted by those who assert that it extends only 
two-thirds of the distance across the river. Again, others 
say that this gallery was made for turning the water from 
the Mile-Run, to be used as a power for driving stamping 
machinery, and for pumping the water from the shaft sunk 
at the north-east corner of the Cotton Factory. 

_ The extension of George Street from the. eastern end of 


21: 


the College Grounds, to the Old Fort Hill, was a dam. 
By a dam in the mile-run the water was poured through this 
subterranean gallery, which comes to the surface in the 
gully in the rear of the house recently erected by Theo. G. 
Neilson, Esq., which occupies the southern bank of the pond. 
The water thus passed through the hill, collected here, 
turned the machinery for crushing the rock in which the 
copper was imbedded, and also pumped the water from the 
shaft in the low ground. The tunnel from the mile-run was 
to obviate the digging of a canal to the same depth, to bring 
the water to the place where it was wanted for use. It 
would have been necessary to cut through the ridge on 
which C. P. Dayton, Esq’s. house stands, which has been 
found by recent survey to be the highest spot of ground in 
the City. The mine holes of tradition are simply well holes, 
through which light and air could be conveyed to the men 
working in the tunnel, and to draw up the material accum- 
ulated in the excavations below. The dam at the mile-run 
was twenty-five feet in height, to raise the water to the mouth 
‘of the tunnel, and its own weight poured it through this 
underground channel to the surface, where it still flows at 
the “Boiling Spring,” in the gully at the foot of “ Old Fort 
Hill.” 

There are in the City of New-Brunswick five Engines— 
two with Hose Carts attached—one Hook and Ladder, in all 
six Companies. The City may justly boast of the energy 
and efficiency of this arm of safety. The members are ex- 
empt from Corporation taxes under three dollars, and from 
the duties of night-watch. The expenses of the department 
are defrayed by appropriations from Common Council, and 
from fines imposed upon delinquent members. The courage 
and bearing of these Companies during a conflagration, are 
much to be admired. They proceed with that cool and 
determined spirit which shows a consciousness of their 
power in subduing the destructive element. A full and 
convenient supply of water, such as might be obtained from 


22 


various sources in our vicinity, (Lawrence’s Brook is pro- 
pably the easiest and cheapest,) which, always at their com- 
mand, would enable them promptly to extinguish the 
most dangerous fire. Our City has never been the scene of 
very extensive burnings. The one at the corner of Church 
and Dennis Streets, destroyed more property and a greater 
number of buildings than any within our recollection or 
knowledge. The ground was immediately occupied by 
better and more substantial edifices. Since then, the build- 
ings used for a tavern and a large range of stables, in Water 
Street, extending through to Peace Street, and a hotel erect- 
ed by Silas Hall, the present popular proprietor of the 
“City Hotel,” were destroyed by the fiery element. The 
former was soon rebuilt to be again destroyed. ‘The latter 
passed into other hands, and a much more extensive and 
substantial edifice, known far and wide as “ Stelle’s Hotel,” 
for the last year in the occupancy of J. O. Taylor, was 
erected. 

Gas was introduced into the City, through the enterprize 
of some of our citizens, in 1852. The dense part of the City 
is now lighted by it, and the hotels, stores, churches, and 
many dwellings, have availed themselves of the advantages 
it affords. 

For years there had been discussions as to the praetic- 
ability of connecting the Delaware and Raritan Rivers by a 
canal. Surveys were made, and a company chartered for 
the purpose. By the erection of a dam in the Raritan, at 
the Lock five miles north of New-Brunswick, a Water- 
Power was formed at the upper end of the city with a fall 
of sixteen feet. Here was erected a water-privilege without 
any great expense, at a place connected with New-York by 
steamboat navigation, and a canal furnishing communication 
with Philadelphia, the two most extensive markets in the 
Union,.on a tract of land which favored the extensive use of 
the water, and as the whole current of the Raritan could be 
diverted at the dam into the canal, the available power 


28 


must be great. This state of things turned the attention of 
capitalists to manufactures. - A Saw Mill was soon erected 
by James Neilson, Esq., which is in successful operation. 
This was followed by an extensive establishment of M. A. 
Howell, Esq., for the printing of Wall Paper—a four story 
building for the manufacture of Cotton Goods by Neilson & 
Stockton—a large concern for the manufacture of Shoes 
from India Rubber, by the-New-Brunswick India Rubber 
Co npany—a large brick building for the manufacture of 
goods from India Rubber, has just been completed by Ford 
& Co., in which work has not been commenced. During 
this period the business of manufacturing India Rubber goods 
was in its infancy. Hutchinson & Onderdonck, H. H. Day 
and others, were perfecting machinery for the grinding and 
spreading of gum for its present use. Hutchinson soon re- 
moved to Newark, and was succeeded by Johnson Letson, 
Esq., and they continued manufacturing and extending until 
within a few years, when the time for a series of changes 
began, which, in the compass of a few months, wrought out 
astonishing results. Associated capital, and consequently 
power, took up the work, which individual enterprise had 
kept moving. The Company immediately erected the com- 
modious buildings on the Water Power, and during the last 
winter, they have added another large four story brick 
building to their Washington Street premises. There are 
several other manufacturers that are actively employed and 
well patronized, which if not calculated to compete with 
other markets, answer a very good purpose for our own. 
The Iron Foundries of the Messrs. Fisk, in Bayard Street-— 
of Kelly & Co. in New Street, produce every variety of 
machinery that steamboats, locomotives and manufactories 
require for extensive operations; and the machine shop 
of Wm. Waldron, Esq., in Dennis Street, has turned out 
some beautifully finished Machinery, for the Printing of 
Wall Paper. A Steam Saw Mill of Rolfe & Metlar, located 
at the foot of New Street, on the Canal, with the one on 


24 


the Water-Power of the Messrs. Neilson, can furnish lumber 
of almost any description in abundance. 

There are two Banks in the City—The State Bank at 
New-Brunswick, and the Bank of New-Jersey. The former 
is located at the corner of Albany and Peace Streets, and 
was erected in 1817, and with the ground cost 17,000 dolls. 
—Capital $200,000. The Bank of New-Jersey is at 
present in the building frormerly occupied by the 
Farmers’ and Mechanics’ Bank, in Church Street. The 
Directors have commenced the erection of a_ building 
on the corner of Neilson and Church Streets, intended for 
a Banking house, which will probably be an ornament to 
the city. 

Besides the manufacturing establishments that we have 
noticed, there is a Steam Flouring Mill of Van Doren & 
Hoagland, located in Spring Alley—an establishment for 
Printing Wall Paper by steam, belonging to Messrs. Jane- 
way, in Water Street—and a Steam Planing Mill, belonging 
to Brokaw & Butler, at the foot of Morris Street, in success- 
ful operation. 

The Court House of the County of Middlesex is one of 
the noblest Public Buildings of our City. It occupies the 
centre of the square, bounded by Bayard, Kirkpatrick and 
Paterson Streets, and Elm Row, fronting on Bayard Street 
and facing the south, a site chosen particularly for its airy 
position. Its grand entrance ranges along Bayard Street, 
running back towards Patterson Street, presenting an allti- 
tude of fifty feet to the eaves, and displaying two bold stories 
above a basement of ten feet ceiling. The lower apartments 
are occupied by the Clerk and Surrogate’s Offices. It is 
substantially built, the lower story is heavily arched, and the 
offices are completely fire-proof. The principal entrance to 
the Court Room is by a flight of eleven steps of Newark 
se.ton At the top of these, at an elevation of eight feet, is 
a platform extending along the whole front fifteen feet deep, 
sustained by a range of six pillars in front, a massy pedi- 


25 

ment, all of which is of Ionic Grecian construction, and in 
good keeping with the main fabric. On entering the corri- 
dor through this portico, on the right hand is a flight of 
steps to the third story—the Grand Jury Room; directly 
in front. is the principal apartment—the Court Room, 45 
by 60 feet, and 15 feet in the ceiling, appropriated to the 
sitting of the different courts of the County. On the side 
of the Court Room next to Paterson Street, and facing the 
visitor as he enters, sit inu Judges behind a desk, raised, with 
the Jury a step lower, and in front facing the Lawyers, who 
are ranged round semi-circular tables, with the audience in 
the front and sides of the room. The walls of the building 
are of brick, with a base of blue granite after the Grecian 
Ionic order. The building cost about $40,000. The edifices 
in which the prisoners of the County are detained, are 
built of brick, and situated a little west of the Court House, 
and the same distance from Bayard Street—two stories high 
in front for the convenience of the Sheriff’s family, and one 
story in the rear which has been recently enlarged for a 
Work-House, enclosed by a substantial brick wall. The 
entrance is by a strong and well secured gate, into a com- 
mon passage flanked by offices, over which are cells for the 
use of the inmates. It is separated partially from the prison 
by well constructed grates and partition walls. 

The Marxet of the City is the second building for this 
purpose ever constructed, and is an eye-sore to the inhabit- 
ants. The first stood in Commerce Square. It was built in 
1811, almost halfacenturyago. Of the latter, few have been 
the repairs—alterations none. We hope to see a new Mar- 
ket-House, and one that will be an ornament to the City, and 
convenient for the purposes for which a market is intended, 

There are in the City of New-Brunswick, two Dutch Re- 
formed Churches, two Presbyterian, two Methodists, one 
Baptist, one Episcopal, one Catholic—nine in all—and one 
Catholic in process of building, on Somerset Street, opposite 
the College, 


26 

Rurcers Corzece, formerly Queen’s, is a plain structure 
composed of a center and two wings, and is finely situated 
on the square enclosed by Somierset, George and Hamilton 
Streets, and College Avenue. The entrances to the square 
are at the corners of Somerset and George Streets, and College 
Avenue and Somerset St. The square is laid down in grass, 
with some very thrifty trees growing init. It is enclosed 
with a very handsome iron fence on Somerset Street. The 
principal building is of stone, three stories high, occupied by 
a Chapel and Recitation Rooms, College Library, Philosophi- 
cal Apparatus, d&c. |The wings are residences for Professors. 
On the east of the main structure, and about fifty feet from 
it, is the President’s house—and to the west, “Van Neste 
Hall,” in compliment to Abraham Van Neste, Esq., a well 
known philanthropist of the City of New-York, and for 
many years, a warm friend of the College. The edifice, in 
its design, is worthy of its projectors, whether the beauty of 
the structure or the object of the name be considered. 
The building will be, inseparably, connected in the minds of 
the rising generation with the memory of the venerable 
patriarch, almost adored for his universal benevolence, 
whose name it bears, who has been identified with the 
institution for the last thirty years. The center building was 
put up in 1809. It is said that $25,000 has been raised in 
the Dutch Church for the erection of a building for the use 
of the Students of the Theological Seminary, to be located 
on the same premises. The square of ground containing 
about six acres, was presented: by the Hon. James Parker of 
Perth Amboy, for the use of the College. 

The public worship of the Catnotic Cuurcu has been 
conducted in a small building in Bayard Street, near George 
—quite inadequate to the number who frequent the place. 
The edifice seems to have answered the purpose, and con- 
sidering the extent of the population and the size of the 
house, the duties of the Church have been managed to 
the satisfaction of the people. But we look for something 


20 


more worthy of the place when the new Cathedral, in pro 
gress on Somerset Street, shall raise its front to the view of 
Rutgers College. In its design, it is a triumph worthy of 
the genius of Gothic Architecture, whether the dimensions 
or the intended splendor of the structure be considered. The 
measurement is 60 feet by 130, and the height from the 
side-walk to the point of the spire is to be 190 feet. The 
style is taken from the famous Yorkminster Cathedral, and 
will be executed agreably toa design adopted by the trustees 
of the Church. It will be equal to any attempt of a similar 
order in the Union, and when completed, may proudly chal- 
lenge comparison with any parochial edifice in the State. 

Tue First Prespyrertan. Cuurcn is an edifice of the 
Grecian Doric order, finely situated, fronting on George 
Street—the handsomest streetgin the City, and the street of 
Churches. The basement story is of granite, the super- 
structure being of brick, plastered to imitate stone. It was 
erected in the year 1835-36, and dedicated December 15th, 
1836. Itis the third edifice erected by }:2 congregation, 
and cost about 25,000 dollars. The congreyation, at present, 
is under the pastoral charge of the Rev. Robert Davidson, 
D.D., to whose Historical Address, on the Presbyterian 
Church, we are indebted for interesting facts. 

Tue Seconp PrespyTeRIAN Cuurcu is a neat and taste- 
ful frame building, occupying the triangular plot of. ground 
formed by Livingston Avenue, and George and Schureman 
Streets. The Rey. Mr. Foote is the pastor. 

Tue First Rerormep Doutcu Cuurcn is the largest 
Church edifice in the City. Thearchitecture is by no means 
pure. It stands on Neilson Street, half-way between Pater- 
son and Bayard Streets. This edifice forcibly strikes the 
stranger by its venerable and antique appearance. It isa 
substantial stone building, with sufficient ornament to give 
it the appearance of a place of eombip The Rev. Dr. How 
is the pastor. 

Tue Baprisr Cuurcs is situated on the corner of Bayard 


28 


and George Streets, fronting on the latter. It is a neat 
brick building, stuccoed, of the Grecian order of architecture, 
with a Lecture Room in the basement. It is under the 
charge of the Rev. George W. Kempton. 

Tue Oxrp Meruopisr Cuvrcg, situated in Liberty Street, 
just above the Wew City Hall, is a plain frame building. 
It occupies the same foundation that a former building did, 
which was prostrated by the Tornado of 1835. This Tor- 
nado, which swept over a portion of our City, from north- 
west to south-east, occurred on the 19th of June, 1835. It 
prostrated everything in its range, striking the City very 
near where the Court House stands, passing down Schureman 
street, levelling and carrying away huge timbers that were 
found miles from the spot whence they were taken, on both 
sides of that street to the river, killing and maiming five 
individuals. Such a visitation never occurred before in this 
vicinity, and is uncommon even in the tropical portions of 
the West Indies. The Pirman Mernopist Cuurcn stands 
on George Street, corner of Oliver,—a neat frame building, 
erected in 1853, through the munificence of James Bishop, 
Esq., and named after one of the former pastors of the 
Liberty Street Church, since deceased. The pastor of the 
one is the Rev. Mr. Hill—of the other the Rev. 8. Y. Munroe. 

Tue Seconp Rerormep DutcnH Cuurcn, under the 
charge of the Rey. Mr. Woodbridge, is a plain frame build- 
ing, at the corner of George and Albany Streets, fronting on 
the latter—making five churches on George Street. 

Tue Pusiic Scuoots of the City have, heretofore, been 
placed under the management of three Trustees, who report- 
ed annually to the inhabitants of the District, the condition 
of the School under their direction. This management has 
been adhered to till the spring of the present year. There 
was partial provision made for the “ poor children” of the 
City, through private munificence—a legacy for defraying 
the expense of a school on the Lancasterian plan, by a Mr. 
Hall, known as the “Hall Fund.” In the City District, a 


83 


and like these show delicate attentions, thus pointing where 
repose the respected and beloved of the community. 

“The New Crry Hatt,” so called, is a building that 
stands on Liberty Street, on the same lot with the Old 
Methodist Church, on ground leased from the Dutch Re- 
formed Church, formerly occupied as a place of interment 
of their dead. It is a plain brick building of three stories 
high. The front of the first two stories is occupied by the 
Fire Engine Companies Nos. 2 and 3, with a public room in 
the rear of the first story, and the Common Council Chamber 
in the rear of the second story. The third floor by a 
Masonic Lodge Room, and by the Algonquin Lodge of Odd 
Fellows. It would not appear that any particular order of 
architecture had been consulted, in its design or execution. 
It was erected at a cost of some $4,500. 

The Gas Works of the City occupy a lot of ground on 
Washington Street, nearly opposite Peace Street, and is 
enclosed by a substantial brick wall ten feet high. In 1853, 
the works were first put in operation by a Company char- 
tered by the Legislature the previous winter. The establish- 
ment was erected under the superintendence’ of John G. 
Hall, Esq., in whose care it still continues to prosper. The 
works finished cost $26,000. The Gas is extracted from 
coal, after which the coke is sold for fuel, at nearly half the 
price of the original cost, 

Nearly half a century ago, a Company was incorporated 
by the name of “ The N. B. Fountain Company,” the object 
of which was to supply the City with pure and wholesome 
water from the “ Barrack Spring,” situated in Church 
Street, just west of Spring Alley. From the location of the 
fountain, this could be but a partialsupply. The “ Barracks” 
from which this spring derived its name, stood on the 
ground now occupied by the mansion of Peter C. Onder- 
donk, Esq., facing the south, and extending toward Bayard 
Street. It was a long one story building of stone, with a 
wooden covering, and that tarred to preserve it. It was 


34 


erected more than a century since, for the aecommoda- 
tion of troops garrisoned here, under the Provincial and 
Colonial governments. One end of it, after the revolution- 
ary war, was used as the jail of the County. It was set on 
fire and destroyed in 1798, by a colored man confined there 
for some petty offence, as was said by some—others say by 
accident. Mr. Manly, the father of Richard Manly, Esq., 
occupied one end of the building at the time. Some of the 
stones from the Barracks were used in the erection of the 
jail that was demolished to make room for the present 
Public School edifice, and those very stones used in the 
foundation. A small reservoir was constructed by the 
Fountain Company, from which the water was distributed 
through wooden logs, and could only come to the surface 
below George Street. From a careful estimate, it was 
thought the whole lower part of the town could have been 
supplied with spring water, but as it could not be raised 
without machinery, the whole project was soon abandoned. 
It thus appears, that the proposition laid before the citizens 
last winter, was not the first attempt to furnish them with 
this, one of the necessaries of life. Much good might yet 
be achieved by a more enlarged view of the benefits to be 
derived, to the City, by the use of this spring or Lawrence’s 
Brook, or some others that have been named in these con- 
nections. The water from either of the sources named, is 
capable of being made fit for all domestic purposes, thus ob- 
viating the necessity for wells, cisterns, d&c.—the birth-place 
of innumerable mosquitoes and the sources of much disease 
—and this, without taking into consideration the porous 
state of the soil below George Street, and the fact that all the 
interments of the City, have been, for nearly two centuries, 
on the slope west of Neilson Street, between Church and 
Schureman Streets—and the accumulation of filth in the 
Canal Basin, has ruined the water in some of the wells on 
both sides of Burnet Street, by the dirty water of the Basin 
percolating the surrounding surface. For the purposes of 


35 


bathing, it is almost indispensable to health—for its use in 
extinguishing fires—for cleansing the streets—for fountains, 
to purify and cool the air—it may be rendered equally a 
convenience, a luxury, and an embellishment. 

The N.J. R. R. and Transportation Company’s Line of 
road ends with the western boundary of the City, and the 
Camden and Amboy R. R. commences. The former Com- 
pany has a Depot for the accommodation of the traveling 
public. The facilities afforded by these roads and the Dela- 
ware and Raritan Canal, and by the Steam-boats on the Rari- 
tan River, for communication with the Cities.of New-York 
and Philadelphia, and thus with all sections of the Union 
and the world, cannot be excelled. The principal traveled 
route between the North and South passes through our midst. 

There are two Bridges over the Raritan, at New-Bruns- 
wick. The Old Bridge at the foot of Albany Street, is the 
third structure upon the same site—the first was erected in 
1794, under charter from the State—re-built in 1811, ata 
cost of 86,000 dollars. The present structure was repaired 
in 1851, after being impassable for ten years. A toll is 
charged that pays the annual expenses, a handsome dividend 
to the stockholders, and a surplus for repairs. The other is 
the Rail Road Viaduct, with a traveling bridge underneath, 
closed up, however, by an express understanding between the 
Stockholders of the Old Bridge and the Directors. of the 
Rail Road. | 

Our task should have ended. We have far exceeded our 
limits, but matter presses upon us—our home is a fruitful 
theme. The old buildings that time and modern improve- 
ment has left us must be noticed. Modern improvement, 
that destroyer is sweeping over our City with the energy of 
a new creation, demolishing whatever lies in its way, for the 
mere pleasure of reproducing it in a new and better (?) form. 
It removes the old buildings and obliterates the last traces of 
our Dutch ancestry. It works such magical changes that 
few of us will be able to point out what has, or predict what 


36 


will be. Let us cherish, then, the few relics that remain, of 
the days of our fathers. Jet the “Street Committees,” and

Spare that ancient house 
Touch not a single stone 


of the old house on the corner of Albany and Neilson (for- 
merly Queen) Streets, once kept as ruz public house of the 
City, by Major Egbert, and in which Lieut. Col. Simcoe was 
detained ‘as a prisoner—-and whose old stone walls are all 
that remain unchanged. The first reading of the Declara- 
tion of Independence, by Col. Neilson, in this City, was in 
front of this house. It is almost alone in its dignity, amidst 
improvements that are daily sweeping into oblivion the | 
antique edifices of former days. Who would not like to 
_ have an engraving of the old house that occupied the pre- 
sent site of “ Paterson Block”—- or the antique structures 
that stood a little further north on Little Burnet Street? Then, 
before it is too late, we would try to save one that we feel 
conscious its days are numbered, its dissolution nigh at 
hand. As a memento of other days—of the past—and as a 
souvenir of the days of “Auld Lang Syne,” we would wish 
that it may long remain as a memorial of other times. 

The old Paterson mansion, at the corner of Commercial 
Square, until within a few years escaped demolition, or even 
the hand of innovation. It was once the courtly residence 
of Goy. Paterson, the first Gov. of the State of New-Jersey— 
the seat of power, and the center of wealth, beauty and 
fashion in the State. There is still one other old building 
that is left alone in its age, with scarce another antique near 
it, and even that, the spirit of innovation is now transfering 
into a show room for coffins—we speak of 17 Albany Street, 
the house in which our ancestor was married, over three-

very sound of the words. Like the dying echo of the last ° 


tones of the departed, it is full of hallowed memories and 
cherished associations that haunt the inner chambers of the 
imagination, and linger with a mournful tenderness about 
the better feelings of the heart.

POSTSCRIPT. 


In closing this first attempt to prepare a Directory for 
the City of New-Brunswick, the compiler feels it a duty to 
offer unfeigned thanks to the Advertisers and others, who 
have extended a degree of confidence and encouragement, 
which he could not have expected, nor probably deserved. 


At an earlier period of life this encouragement would 
have probably induced some emotions of vanity. It can now 
only excite feelings of gratitude to the public, and create a 
hope that this effort will redound to the darling wish of his 
heart—benefit to this his native place. 


To the stranger visiting New-Brunswick, and to the 
business men of our community, no apology need be urged 
for this enterprise. Curiosity in the one case, and necessity 
in the other, will prove a sufficient plea, and prepare the 
way for that favorable reception which it has been the aim 
of the compiler it should deserve; and he flatters himself it 
will be found an agreeable and highly useful companion to 
these as well as to the public generally. 


New materials for the “Sketches of our City” have accu- 
mulated, and will be embodied in a subsequent work of this 
kind, together with a correct Map of the City, and en- 
gravings of some of the Old Buildings and some of the new. 

The compiler is aware that his work is not perfect—the 
first effort of the kind seldom is. On a future occasion he 
hopes to obviate all imperfections.
